The great inventor Thomas Edison once said, “So long as the sun shines, man will be able to develop power in abundance."

Physicists has successfully developed a circuit capable of capturing graphene's thermal motion and converting it into an electrical current.

When you hit your finger with a hammer, you feel the pain immediately. And you react immediately. But what if the pain comes 20 min after.

Scientists designed a new material system to overcome one of the biggest challenges in recycling consumer products: mixed-plastic recycling.

Can we survive three minutes without air or three days without water? How about without batteries? Imagine not having a battery for 3 hours.

The energy systems that power our lives also produce wasted heat—like heat that radiates off hot water pipes in buildings and exhaust pipes.

The electric car market is one of the most rapidly growing sectors, and it helped propel Elon Musk to become the wealthiest man in the world

By harvesting water vapor from the air and condensing it into liquid, atmospheric water generators can essentially pull water from the air.

As the world builds out ever larger installations of wind and solar power systems, the need is growing fast for economical batteries.

The vast majority of electric vehicle owners charge their cars at home in the evening or overnight. We’re doing it wrong, according to study

The Southern Ocean has immense global value, for its ability to regulate global ocean temperature, moderate sea levels, and store carbon.

Radioactive diamond batteries were immediately acclaimed because they promised a new, cost-effective way of recycling nuclear waste.

By using a solid electrolyte instead of the typical liquid solution, solid-state batteries can store considerably more energy by weight.

New research shows that a large marine protected area (MPA) in Hawaiʻi led to recovery and spillover of migratory species.

Solar panels often get a bad rap for spoiling the appearance of homes and businesses. Yet, this may be about to change.

Unlike in Star Trek, here on nonfictional planet Earth, Borgs are DNA packages that could help humans fight climate change.

Communities near the ocean can desalinate sea water, but doing so requires a large amount of energy and is achieved at great expense.

Electricity-generating rooftop solar cells not only save on planet-warming carbon emissions, they also save a significant amount of water.

I have a natural interest in electric motors. With that sustainability issue, I wanted to tackle it, and try and design a different motor.

Most solar cells are currently silicon based; however, their efficiency is limited. This has prompted researchers to examine new materials.
